Chapter 2813 A Calm Mind
What Möbius strip is most worried about is the Immovable Song True Venerable; the others are really not a big problem.
Upon seeing that the other party agreed, she immediately released her divine sense, "Fellow Daoists, please give me face... is that alright?"
"Hmm, I was just bluffing," Wen Shi Zhenjun thought to himself, and countless dazzling ribbons curled back to his brow.
Whether he was telling the truth or not, this reaction certainly shows some of Baiqiao's traits.
The enormous spider phantom, its four forelimbs cradling dozens of points of light, swiftly flashed backward, shouting, "Labor, labor, fee!"
Bo Ping Zhenjun did not react until he saw the speed of spatial distortion begin to slow down, at which point he let out a soft hum.
"According to those guys from Wuyajie, this place should have originally been Lianxing's territory!"
This place is really not far from Lianxing. The last time they went to the outer reaches of the Boundless Realm for divination, the distance was much farther than this.
However, despite saying that, he still suppressed his own aura of Heavenly Inclination.
The spatial distortion gradually stopped, countless points of light returned to their original state, and Qiaoqi's figure reappeared.
He maintained his deadpan expression and said, "Thank you all for your mercy. I always keep my word."
“Nobody doesn’t believe you,” the Möbius strip said casually.
The next moment, a small archway appeared, with the words "Taiyuan" on it.
"Thank you for coming, Fellow Daoist Qiye. You finished your seclusion so quickly?"
The space rippled, and a lean man with a wild aura appeared.
He raised his hand and bowed in a gesture of respect before speaking, "I'm in a hurry to settle accounts with that guy, Yu Ji."
"When I got to Zhongling, I found out that you had all gone there first and had a little sparring session with Senior Jiuping."
"You really are..." Wen Shi Zhenjun shook his head speechlessly, "No wonder you're a ruthless person from Houde."
Having just successfully advanced to the next level, he immediately has to engage in fierce battles with cultivators of the same level... This is already a routine for him.
“We didn’t receive anything substantial,” Xiaoyou said solemnly. “We hope you will understand.”
“Of course I know that,” True Lord Seven Leaves said straightforwardly. “Do you think the Great Lord’s perception is just for show?”
“You have your grudges with Yuji; I have my karma. Since it’s ownerless, whoever gets it first gets to keep it.”
"Foolish machine...unclaimed?" True Monarch Qiaoqi was taken aback upon hearing this. "Is it that evil cultivator I know? Is it related to Jiuping?"
Qiye completely ignored him—his arrogance was among the worst in Houde's history.
Wen Shi Zhenjun nodded, "Yes, he was killed by the Heaven and Earth. It is said that Jiu Ping failed to notice his lurking clone."
He said it was "rumored," but the facts are there for all to see. Even Nanae can attest to it; he just wasn't involved.
"This whole thing is a mess..." Qiaoqi muttered softly, then said nothing more.
His ability to directly define Yuji as a heretical practitioner reveals his stance.
But the next moment, he couldn't help but glance at Qu Jianlei—was it this little guy who had made that public announcement to the world?
He had a very bad impression of Yu Ji and didn't think the opponent was that strong. Just based on the interaction of their attributes, he was confident of victory.
However, this does not mean that he believes he can easily eliminate the other party—no great king is easy to kill.
At this moment, he was very puzzled. What kind of means did the other party's proclamation to heaven and earth contain that allowed the True Venerable to annihilate the True Monarch?
However, everyone said that the matter was over, and no matter how curious he was, he couldn't ask... that would just be asking for trouble.
Thinking of this, he glanced at the spider in the distance, seemingly casually: A mere quasi-king, asking for a service fee? Very well!
Although the skirmish just now was brief, he paid a heavy price. The little bit that the spider stole was nothing.
He could accept the physical and mental exhaustion from the battle, but this unjust plundering was somewhat insulting.
Qiaoqi is fierce in nature, but not very broad-minded. Fire-attribute cultivators usually cannot tolerate any injustice.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have become so ruthless just because of Qu Jianlei's words.
Of course, if he says the matter is over, then it is over. But... don't fall into my hands in the future!
Wen Shi Zhenjun noticed this scene and said calmly, "This spider is a bit ignorant. Fortunately, fellow Daoist, your losses are not great."
"Hmm?" Upon hearing this, True Monarch Qiaoqi glanced at him, then looked at the spider twice.
After a few breaths, he gritted his teeth and said, "I really thank you, Fellow Daoist Wenshi... the rumors are indeed true!"
"Rumors?" Wen Shi Zhenjun was somewhat taken aback. "My reputation for being kind to others has even reached Yu Xiu?"
"This is a recipe for disaster!" Qiaoqi was barely able to contain his anger. "You're trying to get me to provoke a Nascent Soul cultivator?"
“That’s not true,” Wen Shi Zhenjun answered straightforwardly, “It doesn’t understand, but there’s nothing we can do… we can’t stop it!”
"I'm just wondering, is such an obvious hint that it's not to be messed with considered instigating you?"
"Hey," Qiaoqi said, though his face remained expressionless, he was clearly amused by her anger. "You're saying you're right, and that I can't afford to mess with you?"
"Didn't you already say it was over?" Wen Shi Zhenjun said calmly, "If you had no ulterior motives, where did this instigation come from?"
True Monarch Qiaoqi remained silent for a long time before nodding slightly. "I was wrong. Thank you for your guidance, fellow Daoist!"
It's unbelievable that someone could make him apologize. If his friends saw this, their jaws would probably drop to their feet.
At the same time, True Monarch Qiye started chatting with Qu Jianlei and others.
The last time he left in such a hurry, he was in such a sorry state that he was too ashamed to face anyone.
But this time, he helped block the retreat of the True Lord of the Cliff, and felt that he had done something, so at least he could make an appearance.
In his words, after sparring with the Nine Screens True Lord, he lost his drive for revenge and suddenly felt like there was nothing left to do.
While he was idling around, he suddenly noticed that what Qiaoqi was asking about seemed quite interesting.
Qiye herself wasn't a particularly gossipy person, but after listening for a couple of sentences, she suddenly had a sudden thought—this matter was related to her.
The Great King's intuition was certainly not unfounded, so he secretly followed Qiaoqi to investigate what was going on.
He felt somewhat embarrassed when he met Qu Jianlei and his group, but he couldn't simply deny the karmic consequences that had already been formed.
Nana is always very straightforward, and since she's in relatively good shape right now, if she thinks the other party is trying to run away, then she might as well show herself.
As for how difficult it is to deal with someone like Kyoki Shinjun, that's not even on his radar.
After hearing this, Luo Fu looked on with envy, exclaiming, "This is how one should cultivate immortality!"
“Then you’d die eight hundred times over,” Qi Ye chuckled dismissively. “Some paths are hard to walk, don’t follow my example.”
Rumor has it that he is a very difficult person to communicate with, but at this moment, he really doesn't have any airs of a great king.
Luo Fu's heart stirred slightly upon hearing this, but she didn't dare to speak to her cheap senior brother, so she could only look at Jing Yuexin.
Jing Zhenzun hitched a ride with her to find Boss Qu. Although the two hadn't known each other for long, they had a lot to talk about.
This was the first true best friend she had ever made, and more importantly, she admired Qi Ye's way of doing things.
"Boss..."
She only uttered two words, but Qu Jianlei already understood her meaning—hundreds of years of tacit understanding were not for nothing.
He also admired Qi Ye's temperament, but... Wan Tianqing's team was already quite large.
Whether or not he can allow others to enter the market and get a share of the profits is not a decision he can make alone.
So he nodded slightly to Seven Leaves True Monarch, "If you are interested, senior, you are welcome to observe."
"Huh?" Qi Ye was taken aback for a moment, then laughed. "Only bystanders are welcome?"
He's just aloof by nature; his intelligence is definitely not lacking, otherwise he wouldn't have been able to distract himself so many times despite being robbed.
His rhetorical question, to those in the know, was not a challenge, but rather a gesture of cooperation!
This guy is something else! Qu Jianlei instantly realized—some words must be heard in the appropriate context!
“There is a risk of failure,” he replied calmly. “Not only me, but other seniors and fellow practitioners also think so.”
“Oh, I thought you could make the decision,” Seven Leaves True Lord laughed upon hearing this, in a very mischievous way, “It turns out there are others as well.”
It's hard to imagine that someone with his tough and wild personality could have such a smile.
"But it doesn't matter. I will definitely give you face, so I'll just watch from the sidelines."
"It's fine if you want to join, neither Taiyuan nor I have any objections," Wen Shi Zhenjun suddenly declared.
“We are all virtuous, but as for the others, you’ll have to talk to them yourself, Qiye.”
"Shut up!" Möbius roared. "You haven't even joined yourself, what are you babbling about... Ling Yun is just a troublemaker!"
"Xiao Qu, Houde's vision is too narrow. I'll guide you into Zhongling later. Even if I'm gone, there's still Kongyu!"
"I told you not to talk nonsense," the young woman couldn't help but complain and ask for clarification.
"Fellow Daoist Qiye has his own ideas, how come you have no memory at all?"
The mighty Lingyun Pillar of Heaven has been repeatedly challenged, one of whom is even the spirit of Lingyun Sect's treasured artifact...
The treatment that Wen Shi Zhenjun receives is truly unparalleled.
But strangely enough, he looked completely indifferent, as if the conversation wasn't about him at all; his character was indeed extraordinary.
“I’ll observe from the sidelines for now,” said True Monarch Qiye calmly. “If there are any more who are blind to my abilities, Young Friend Qu, please speak up.”
He has a very strong sense of self-respect. Although he has been refined for thousands of years, his lifespan is only a little over seven thousand years. He is not in a hurry to advance to the next level.
He could consider the opportunity to unite with someone, or he could choose not to care.
However, with so many great lords present, the fact that he singled out a True Venerable speaks volumes about their relationship with him.
Even Taiyuan Hai, who rarely makes a formal appearance, is nothing special to him.
The Great Lord has his own feelings. During his refining process, Qu Zhenzun was once captured by Yuji and investigated.
At the time, he was unable to perceive it, but after escaping, all sorts of causes and effects naturally came to mind.
In addition, he had some understanding of the cause and effect of his escape from the predicament, so his attitude towards Qu Zhenzun was naturally different.
Upon hearing this, True Monarch Qiaoqi glanced at Qu Jianlei again, seemingly unintentionally: Just what is the background of this little True Venerable?
